Re: Knife & Light pics.

The most light & knife I could find for short money :)

ZT 0350ST & SWM V10R Ti

The only feature about the knife that was irritating is the handle end treatment:

Strider does that on some of their models:

I don't much like that on a $500 Strider & certainly didn't want it on my $112 ZT :) So I hit the delete key:

IMO Rick Hinderer selects a much nicer & more functional groove location (shown on XM-18 Slicer):

It's the kobun "made in japan", uses Aus-8 steel. Used it for some years, and it stays sharp for a long time. The kobun from taiwan uses a different steel i think.

Bacon and Trits, no Eggs.
If you like your trits served up savory, you'll love this...

I recently modded this V10R Anniversary Edition to install the new Steve Ku 12 Trit Titanium fin section. You can't see it here but there's a 3 trit titanium tail switch as well which is being upgraded to house 6 trits. This light will get a 6 trit crenulated Ti bezel and a Ti clip soon also from Steve. The emitter is a pleasantly 'neutral' XML T5. The fin sections are sold out but there will be a second run. The light itself was a recent limited run of 80 and they're hard to find, like the bacon.
